Tamir Wolf
Tamir Wolf is the CEO and co-founder of Theator, a Palo Alto and Tel Aviv based company building a surgical intelligence platform that uses AI and computer vision to analyze surgical video and reduce variability in the operating room. A physician turned entrepreneur, he earned an MD and PhD from the Technion, served as a medical officer in an elite Israeli Navy unit, and founded two earlier medical device companies before starting Theator in 2018. His stated goal is to codify surgery so that where a patient lives no longer dictates the quality of care they receive.
Gabriel Jones
Gabriel Jones is the co-founder and CEO of Proprio, a Seattle medtech company building AI-powered surgical navigation. Its FDA-cleared Paradigm platform combines light-field imaging, real-time AI, and 3D visualization to give surgeons dynamic spatial awareness during spine procedures. Jones took an unusual path to medtech - engineering study in Japan, civil engineering at Taisei, Wall Street M&A, and work with the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation - before co-founding Proprio in 2016 with a neurosurgeon, a robotics professor, and a computer vision specialist. He frames the mission around a single question: is it possible to do well and do good?
Theator
Theator is a surgical intelligence company that turns raw operating-room video into structured, actionable data. Using proprietary computer vision and AI, its platform analyzes minimally invasive procedures in real time - identifying surgical steps, flagging safety milestones, and generating operative reports by the time the surgeon leaves the OR. Founded by Dr. Tamir Wolf and Dotan Asselmann, Theator aims to reduce variability in surgical care and is deployed at academic medical centers including Mayo Clinic and UHealth Miami, having analyzed more than 600,000 procedures.
Robert Masson
Robert Masson is a neurosurgeon turned founder who runs eXeX (Expanded Existence), an AI and mixed-reality platform that captures surgical mastery and pipes holographic guidance into the sterile field. With more than three decades of spine surgery and 13,000-plus procedures behind him, he made global headlines for bringing the Apple Vision Pro into the operating room as a touch-free logistics tool. He is also the founder of the Masson Spine Institute and, at 52, raced to a podium at the Rolex 24 at Daytona alongside his eldest son.
Caresyntax
Caresyntax is an AI-powered surgical intelligence platform that turns the operating room into a connected data environment. Its vendor-neutral software captures video, device, and EMR data across more than 4,000 ORs and supports over two million procedures a year, helping hospitals improve outcomes, reduce costs, and make surgery measurably safer.
Keith Carter
Keith Carter is a healthcare technology operator with deep roots in medical imaging and surgical data infrastructure. Currently VP of Implementations & Integrations at Caresyntax - the AI-powered surgical intelligence platform used in 3,500+ operating rooms worldwide - he also serves as CEO of Cloud9PACS.com, a digital PACS system he built from the ground up. Carter's career traces the arc of healthcare IT: from PACS architect at Medlink to running his own imaging solutions company, to joining one of the most-funded surgical AI ventures in the industry. He is based in Hattiesburg, Mississippi.
Matt Krueger
Matt Krueger is the Chief Executive Officer of Caresyntax, an AI-powered surgical intelligence platform used in 4,200+ operating rooms worldwide and supporting over 3 million surgical procedures annually.
